106 106  Networked systems are generally preferred over standalone systems for most applications. Networked systems, and in particular networked systems with custom programming, are able to meet a much wider variety of sequences compared to standalone systems. Additionally, start-up and maintenance can be simplified, and certain aspects completed remotely, compared to standalone systems.

154 -The primary downside to using a custom program is that it is necessary to actually write a custom program for the system. With the SHOWRUNNER™ platform however, this downside is averted as it comes with a suite of tools to simplify configuration and commissioning easier compared to other custom programs.
